Screw you.
Ok, an update.
We've decided that we're gonna go for a multiple theme thing. So far, we have three themes planned: a Classic TWHL (so it'll look the same as it does now essentially) a New Classic (which is a more subtle and more attractive re-working of the TWHL theme) and a brand new, as yet un-named (and undesigned) theme that won't resemble the style of the current TWHL at all.

The longer time allotment was mostly for the Source lads, but I suggest you all take advantage of it.

Twilight Princess is a GameCube title, which is why it looks fuglier than it should. Besides, who cares about graphics?
Granted, World Crafter.
I would've left this open to anyone who wanted to discuss the video, but I'll close it as per your wishes.

I wasn't here.
On that note, if you kids want to play up and act retarded, I'll just ban the lot of you.
Hell, if we only have two members left after a ban run who actually want to map, use our resources and not act in a way that would embaress a three year old, then TWHL will stay online. I'll continue to work with those two members to bring TWHL back to a time that I personally prefered.
There's a serious problem here with you, Orpheus, as well as some other select members who have decided to voice their opinions in this thread. Either you all get your act together, or I'll just ban you all. Oh, and Orpheus, please don't reply with a condescending and smug post that somehow ridicules my actions and behaviour as a mod.
To the rest of you: don't post smart ass replies or you'll face punishment.
End of story. You all fail. I hope you're happy.

This thread was forged in the fiery depths of Mount Fail.
For a bunch of teenagers and a 50-something year old, you all act like a bunch of pansies.
But I did not shoot the deputy!

Strideh my dear boy, if you're gonna bitch then don't enter.
Glass didn't exactly a huge amount of possibilities either, considering that basically all you could do with it was make it transparent and make it shatterable, yet we had a wide range of entries.

You can easily accentuate the water element in whatever locale you've chosen. Surely the mappers here are creative enough to figure something out.
I personally consider this to be similar to the glass compo. Just use your damn imaginations.

Because the TWHL cookie doesn't have that feature.
Dude, you can use water as a theme. You don't have to create a stunning entity map if you don't want to, this is purely a mapping based compo.
Well, closing a session in your browser and reopening will add to your login count, even if you're got "Remember me" ticked.
But yeah, we'll fix that.

I dunno then. You allowing cookies?
Based on history, the last few compos have had poor turnouts.
That'll be fixed so that it works on multiple PCs.
The problem with it is that if you login on another PC, the cookie dies. If you stay on the one machine, it should work fine.

Ok guys, we've kinda gone all out with this compo. For a start, custom content for both engines is now allowed, but you can't add any new coding.
Secondly, pay heed to this:
Get mapping!
Secondly, pay heed to this:
All maps submitted must include a readme file describing which game it is for. If hosting your map remotely and uploading a link with the form, this readme must be included with the actual mapIf you don't include a readme, then you will be disqualified. Yes, disqualified. We've extended the deadline for the compo as well, as we believe it's a fun one that everyone can participate in. As mentioned in the news article, if we get a poor turnout, we will suspend compos until TWHL3 is ready to roll, and that won't be for a while.
Get mapping!
To be included in TWHL3.
I suggest either Imageshack or Photoamp. And please, for the love of god, post a direct link to the image.
Yeah, I see the dagger too, but I can sorta see what srry's on about. Although, if the porn you're looking at looks like that, then man, you've got some serious fetish problems. 
Bwahahaha.

Create a brush and texture it with the Clip texture. It will act as an invisible wall.

Space we don't have. 
The WAD files are all packed into the GCF files, which are kinda like ZIP files (or the old PAK files from the WON days). You'll need GCFScape (Google for it) to extract the WAD files.
The price of the PSP has dropped to absurd levels, so if anything they should be selling a bucketload now. Alas...
Graphics aren't everything. I do believe the PSP proved that, and then some. The DS is currently kicking its ass all over the world, and that's got the same power as a Nintendo 64 (maybe even less). Methinks innovation is proving to be a force to be reckoned with.
Yeah, I agree with Elof.
Owning a Virtual Boy would be cool, they're pretty rare. And utterly useless.
Pfft, why not! They could've put holes for the Virtual Boy, GB, DS, NES, SNES and N64! I SEE NO PROBLEM WITH THAT

The Wii's backward compatibility isn't anywhere near as good as Sony's, considering that their entire catalogue of games from the PS1 and the PS2 are compatible with the PS3.
The only thing I care about is that the PS3 is getting its ass handed to itself and boy am I laughing hard.

Its the most likely explanation for the 'foo fighter's which were seen by US and allied aircraft pilots.And that's where the name for Dave Grohl's band came from.
We're coding the site in XHTML Transistional (or Strict, whichever we prefer), which Opera and FireFox can render perfectly.
No need to shutup, commentary is valid from everyone.
The way I see it, we're gonna need 3 stylesheets to cater for proper browsers, IE6 and IE7. Pain in the ass.

Multiple stylings was talked about ages ago, but for the time being, we want to concentrate on the main theme and actually getting something up: we need drastic improvements to the admin system, so different colour schemes isn't a priority atm, considering the current colours don't hinder one's navigation/readibility.
The site will be layed out better though, I can assure you that.

Screw the bots, make this a real player based map. Multiple objectives sounds fun: makes a change from the "plant bomb > explode > win" thing.

Point is, we have to do extra shit to get it to render properly. This is what standards are for, ffs.
As for the colour scheme: if it were up to me entirely, I'd scrap the current colour scheme altogether. However, the colours are generally 'friendly' and they are also a part of TWHL, so we're going for an update instead. As for the 'wasted grey space': TWHL currently renders without the need for a horizontal scroll on 800w resolutions. We will be widening it slightly, but not by much.

Methinks we'll wait till I get back from vacation: I've been absolutely buggered with work these last few days, I've only been arsed enough to do some news posts for Sliced Gaming, let along get a compo up and running.
Sorry folks, but you can rest assured that I do have a compo up my sleeve, ready for when I return.

We're already finding problems with IE7's rendering of our test page. Don't blame our code either - it's coming up as it should in both Opera and FireFox.
Verify intergrity of game cache.
I don't think it really matters to be honest: we sure as hell won't learn a huge amount about even our own universe in our lifetime.
